Suppose the MPC is 0.60. Assume there are no crowding out or investment accelerator effects. If the government increases expenditures by $200 billion, then by how much does aggregate demand shift to the right
Answer:
$500 billion
Explanation:
we must first calculate the economy's multiplier = 1 / MPS
marginal propensity to save (MPS) = 1 - MPC = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4
economy's multiplier = 1 / 0.4 = 2.5
this means that if the government increases expenditures by $200 billion, the the economy will grow (rightward shift) by $200 x 2.5 = $500 billion

Marco was a furniture buyer for Wellart Department Stores. Marco was authorized to enter into contracts worth up to $50,000. Marco entered into a contract with Frank's Furniture to purchase $100,000 worth of dining room furniture. If Wellart refuses to honor the contract and Frank's sues:
Answer:
Frank's will win, as Marco had implied and/or apparent authority.
Explanation:
Frank's will win, as Marco had implied and/or apparent authority.
Express authority is the authority which the principal has expressly given to the agent whether in a written or orally form.
Implied authority ( it can as well be described as usual authority) is the authority of an agent to acts which are reasonably incidental to and necessary for the effective performance of his duties.
So relating the above to the situation at hand, Mark acted based on the authority given to him by Wellart Department Stores. It was an implied authority.
An insured's disability income policy includes an additional monthly benefit rider. For how many years can the insured expect to receive payment from the insurer before Social Security benefits begin?
Answer:
1 Year
Explanation:
This is because, the additional monthly benefit rider stipulates that the insurer will only pay benefits comparable to what Social Security would pay. Therefore, after a year, the insurer ends the benefit and assumes that Social Security will begin benefit payment.
Hence, the insured expect to receive payment from the insurer for ONE YEAR before Social Security benefits begin.

Tesco was forced to restate its earnings for the first half of 2014 to 431 million USD because senior managers in the UK food business had booked income early and delayed the booking of costs in order to improve appearances of financial performance. This scandal results from ____________ and __________.
Answer:
Poor governance and Control
Explanation: The overstatement of profit made by TESCO, a renowned grocery chain in the U. K could largely be traced to the poor internal structure governing the setup which demonstrated high level of ineptitude in the control and anchoring the of the firm's activities. In a bid to increase profit and market standing, TESCO embarked on an aggressive financial strategy whereby income was doctored and suppliers tricked into making payment in other to up the company's earning figure. This act explains how disjointed the upholding structure within the company was at the time.
In March 2012, the state of California started requiring that all packaging for food and drink with the additive 4-methylimidazole (4-MI) be clearly labeled with a cancer warning. Because of this, both Pepsi and Coke changed their formula to eliminate 4-MI as an ingredient. If Pepsi and Coke did NOT change their formula, holding all else constant, what would have happened to the demand for these goods, assuming Pepsi and Coke were in a competitive market
Answer:
The demand curve for Pepsi and Coke would have shifted to the left, causing the price of both products to decrease and the profits for both companies to fall.
Explanation:
As in the question it is mentioned that the if the Pepsi and Coke do not change the formula and all other things being constant so the demand for the goods in case of the competitive market is that the demand curve is shifted to the left which results in a decrease in the price of both goods also due to price falls the profits for both companies dropped.
Trina's property is listed with Avalon Homes. The market is a little slow, and Trina's listing is a high-end home, where sales are even slower. She's had several showings, but no offers. The term of the listing agreement is nearly over. What happens when the termination date is reached?
Answer: Listing expires and terminated
Explanation: In the scenario above, Avalon homes only serves to aid the sale of Trina's property and as such will not be held liable for any offense if the property isn't sold within the listing period. Avalon homes isnt responsible for either the slow nature of market at the time or the fact that Trina's property belongs to the high end category which often takes even more time to get a buyer for. Therefore, once the contract period of Trina's listing is reached, the listing expires and it's terminated unless another listing contract is struck between both parties.
Offshore oil-drilling operations entail an unavoidable risk of an oil spill, but importing oil on tankers presently entails an even greater such risk per barrel of oil. Therefore, if we are to reduce the risk of an oil spill without curtailing our use of oil, we must invest more in offshore operations and import less oil on tankers.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously weakens the argument above.
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill.
B) Oil spills caused by tankers have generally been more serious than those caused by offshore operations.
C) The impact of offshore operations on the environments can be controlled by careful management.
D) Offshore operations usually damage the ocean floor, but tankers rarely cause such damage.
E) Importing oil on tankers is currently less expensive than drilling for it offshores.
Answer:
A) Tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill.
Explanation:
The option that if true most seriously weakens the argument above is: tankers can easily be redesigned so that their use entails less risk of an oil spill because the statement says that importing oil on tankers entails a greater risk of an oil spill than offshore oil-drilling and the option chosen directly talks about that and says that the tankers can easily be redesigned to decrease the risks of an oil spill which goes against the argument given.
The other options are not right because the options B and C support the argument given. Also, options D and E doesn't talk about oil spill which is the topic on the argument presented.
McCoy's Fish House purchases a tract of land and an existing building for $940,000. The company plans to remove the old building and construct a new restaurant on the site. In addition to the purchase price, McCoy pays closing costs, including title insurance of $2,400. The company also pays $12,800 in property taxes, which includes $8,400 of back taxes (unpaid taxes from previous years) paid by McCoy on behalf of the seller and $4,400 due for the current fiscal year after the purchase date. Shortly after closing, the company pays a contractor $47,000 to tear down the old building and remove it from the site. McCoy is able to sell salvaged materials from the old building for $3,800 and pays an additional $10,400 to level the land.
Required: Determine the amount McCoy's Fish House should record as the cost of the land. (Amounts to be deducted should be indicated by a minus sign.)
Answer:
$1,004,400
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of land is shown below:-
The Total cost of land = Purchase price of the land + Title Insurance + Property Taxes + Cost of removing the building + Level the land - Salvaged materials
= $940,000 + $2,400 + $8,400 + $47,000 + $10,400 - $3,800
= $1,004,400
Therefore for computing the total cost of land we simply applied the above formula.

Suppose that a company based in Dallas, Texas, initially confronts only four other rival firms. Its own market share is percent, which ties it with the other largest producer and seller in the industry. The market share of each of the other three firms is percent. Then a sixth firm, located in Cleveland, Ohio, enters the same industry. The new firm captures percent market share, and the market share of one of the smallest three original incumbents declines to percent as well. After the Cleveland firm's entry into the industry, what are the values of the four-firm concentration ratio and of the Herfindahl-Hirschman index?
Answer:
1. 86.7%
2. 2244.4
Explanation:
The computation is shown below:
1. The new 4 firm concentration ratio after entry is
= Total mix share of 4 largest firms
= 30% + 30% + 13.33% + 13.33%
= 86.7%
2. Now HHI index is
= sum of squared shares
= 30^2 + 30^2 + 13.33^2 + 13.33^2 + 6.67^2 + 6.67^2
= 2244.4
Hence, we applied the above values so that each part could be determined
hoose the statement that is incorrect. A. The consensus is that the crowding-out effect is strong enough to make the government expenditure multiplier less than 1. B. The government expenditure multiplier is the quantitative effect of a change in government expenditure on real GDP. C. The tax multiplier is the quantitative effect of a change in taxes on real GDP. D. The demand-side effects of a tax cut are likely to be larger than an equivalent increase in government expenditure
Answer: D. The demand-side effects of a tax cut are likely to be larger than an equivalent increase in government expenditure
Explanation:
There is now a consensus amongst economists that an increase in Government spending will have larger demand-side effects than a tax cut. This is because Government spending goes directly into the economy and stimulates growth through the ripple effect that it has that will see money multiplied.
Tax cuts on the other hand are only effective if consumers either consume the tax savings or invest them. While they will do this for most of the savings, there is a high probability that they will save some of them instead of spending them.
